It's my understanding that oil temp is only disabled on very early VE's, but can be enabled on the BCM using tuning software (like efilive etc) can't be enabled with a Tech2When I put in a Calais headunit I reflashed the Green Omega radio display in my 2010 International to SSV triple gauges (which it was never meant to do !) and oil temp displays fine. If yours is a 2009, that should work fine too.

This information is correct. You have to change the oil pressure to be sent over CAN with EFILive

Its my understanding that the ecu (engine control) needs to have the oil temperature broadcast function enabled. (Hence the reason why you need the tuning software efi live)So unless you have (access to) efi live, there is no other way around this.

The hsv triple gauges also have the same problem with early the models (like mine) where the oil temp reads 0.

I just did the swap of SSV in to SS thanks to Doubledip for all the electrics work(I can change a cam but not confident with electrics). With the Atari gauges I bough a second hand display off ebay part number 92228599, pluged in and all 3 gauges working, this is in a 10/08 SS. Has had tune done but wouldn't have thought the tune would enable any other stuff so hopefully a plug in and play display.

Does anyone have or working on the .bin file to covert the Atari gauges from a 2 type display to a 3 part? I've been reading around and it seems that an entire .bin flash is required to make the changes.

Do you mean the Oil Temperature Gauge is not working on the G8 (Using the E3 Gauges) ?If so, then the ECU needs to be programmed to broadcast the Oil Temperature on the HS Can line (For this gauge to work).

As far as I know, EFI Live has the ability to set this, I am not too sure if HPTuners has this option. (Maybe someone with some more knowledge on HPTuners can clarify this ??)
